ACK notifiers don't work with AMD SVM w/ AVIC when the PIT interrupt
is delivered as edge-triggered fixed interrupt since AMD processors
cannot exit on EOI for these interrupts.

Add code to check LAPIC pending EOI before injecting any pending PIT
interrupt on AMD SVM when AVIC is activated.

In which case would eoi be != 0 when APIC-V is active?
